We asked for your thoughts after Sunday’s Premier League game between Nottingham Forest and Aston Villa.
Here are some of your comments:
Nottingham Forest fans
John: A crucial point against a tough opponent. Might be the difference for staying up. Moments of good play and some not so much but it’s about building points at this stage of season.

Peter: I think most Forest supporters would have taken a point against Villa before kick off. We are definitely playing better and Neco is outstanding. Hopefully Chris Wood will also find the back of the net in the next few games. My concern is – will this point be enough to stay up at the end of the season?
Kris: Bit of a stalemate, but we got away with one today. Villa missed a couple of absolute sitters, whereas we looked blunt in the final third. A point against a team challenging at the other end of the table can’t be sniffed at and we’re slowly pulling away.
Luke: We certainly rode our luck, but it’s a hard fought and very important point. Over the course of the season this is the kind of game we would lose in heart-breaking fashion – so there are encouraging signs. Certainly not out of the woods at this point but the season could still turn out to be incredible.
Aston Villa fans
Ian: A game we should have won with two or three golden chances in the second half. Some credit to Forest though in fighting for their Premier League survival. Solid performance without hitting our best but we need to be more clinical. Let’s hope it doesn’t come back to haunt us.

Dean: Praise has gone to Rogers’ head. He’s gone from excellent to average over the last few months – giving the ball away far too much and seems generally off it.
Robbie: Villa didn’t seem up for the game as much as Forest did. Morgan Rogers has not been himself for a while now, every time he got the ball he either lost it or passed it to the opposition. He’s gone off the boil and needs to improve more for the trip to the World Cup, if selected.
Michael: Mixed. Technically better than Forest but gave the ball away far too often in dangerous areas – Rogers guilty on several occasions including equaliser. Equally profligate at the other end – Watkins, Rogers missing gilt-edged chances. Emery fuming in technical area! Must do better.
